The search facility at CD Baby is IMO useless - I have no idea why it brings up the items displayed. Sometimes it is a quote about the group by Thomason, sometimes there is nothing that I can find relating to Thomason. Rarely, and indication that he guested with the group, but no indication of which track(s).

There have been a few posts in Mudcat about DBFS in the past. I hoped there would be some who know of and have records on which Ron Thomason appears and would be willing to share that information.

The DBFS site has very little information about the early Thomason recordings (pre Rounder), or his work with non-DBFS projects. As my original post indicates, I have all the early albums (Kanawha, RITE, RT, GORDO).

SO - if you know of any NON-DBFS recordings where Ron Thomason participated, please send details. THANK YOU!

Suzanne Thomas [Edmundson when she was a member of Hot Mud Family] was a vocalist/guitarist with DBFS. On her solo album 'Dear Friends & Gentle Hearts' [Rounder CD 0423, 1998], Thomason plays mandolin on 'Faded Coat of Blue', 'Dear Friends & Gentle Hearts' and 'I have no mother now', lead guitar on 'Just a few more days' and lead vocal/mandolin on 'We must have been out of our minds'. Thomason also wrote the introductory piece about Suzanne for the album.
